    I don't smoke but it wouldn't bother me as long as there is a window down. I am married to but my wife understands that I come from a long line of truckers and this is all I wanted and need to do. About 2 month ago I did the crst thing and got my cdl. They should have some kind of IQ test before they let some of these people on the road but that's a another thread. I skipped out the weekend before my orientation but planned to go back. I cleared this with my recruiter

    Update... I'm hired at expedited services driving over the road straight trucks. BUT I need a teammate that lives in Maryland. I can park the truck in my yard if needed. I found a teammate that lived in Philly but kept backing out. what a pain that was. It would be nice to find a owner operator with an 18 wheeler that can take me in, teach me logs and backing skills. I'm working part time driving steak body flatbed B trucks with Eaton fuller 10 speed transmissions. I can't get on mydriverprofile so sorry for all this. All driving/criminal records are clean and clear. I'm not lazy, don't smoke, clean, very respectful, out going, Very focused and safe when it comes to my deliveries. I've been delivering in the DC balt area driving straight trucks 6 years so I know all about traffic and DOT. I can go on all night about how great of a teammate I'd make but I'll stop wile I'm ahead. I hate rap and use an old Galaxy dx 88 on my base station. I tried the Craigslist thing but was getting all kinds of stupid resumes and idiots so forget that. If you have at least a class B and respect for yourself and people I have a gig for us. No experience but some would be re ensuring send me a PM. If you smoke just crack the window please. Don't know how else to reach out but thought I'd give this a try.:Taxi-lorry:
